As previously mentioned, this image from the potato computer archive doesn't show poor weapons handling or safety. He has eyepro on, mags out, battery is unknown. He could of dropped it muzzle end in the dirt and is checking its clear. His eyes not even in line with the barrel.

I can only recommend LOWA zephyr and AKU pilgrims for lighter work as these are boots that I've had. The Lowa's beating the Aku's in both comfort and performance however. Ive had lots of other lowa's and other brands but they were more winter/mountain boots and not what id recommend for airsoft purposes.

if you search on yewtoob there you'll find a potty mouthed (s)punk rock type chap who has created a rather brilliantly informative video based purely on the question you ask. Even if you don't follow his recommendations its a laugh to watch. He's an absolute UNT©️.

Woh, didn't expect this thread to go on for so long and we've not even got onto rubber knives yet......🤣

There are some ok ideas but I think my ideas of a secure/policed storage of all RIFS maybe the only way IF it comes to it. Criminals cannot get around these ideas unless the airsoft site owners storage is burgled of course. Ban TWO TONES (they can be sprayed black after all right?) as they can be purchased with anyone age permitting and use a more secure sale process (like a registered database, similar to Airsnipers point) rather than the current system. I would be happy to hand my RIFS into a RIF armoury/police station before a game and straight afterwards. As for maintenance I would expect the sites to conjure up a facility where secure maintenance can be carried out under supervision of some sort. Realistically of course the police won't want anything to do with it and they're overstretched as they are so this would need to arranged through UKARA, parliament and the brilliant airsoft sites throughout the UK. But if im honest non of the above would would be approved due to the financial implications, it would be easier for MP's to vote on simply banning them and therefore eradicating the problem. To deter these muppets it would take an officer to actually shoot one. To most criminals, ten years means 5 years playing COD in a warm cosy bed whilst learning new methods to carry out unlawful acts upon their release (I don't mean to generalise so apologies if it come across this way). I like your ideas regarding moving the sales and ownership of a RIF to almost mirror that of an actual firearm in the uk. I really hope this is the last time I see this kind of thing in the mainstream media or I may sell up before the ban is made public (we won't be given any warning or reimbursement for all of our toys etc). Hmmm the freedom of information act....I wonder how many RIF incidents there has been each year for the past decade? is it linear or on a progressive surge? I might look into this if I get the time.

Like.. Ermmm.. TWO TONE..... yikes

https://news.sky.com/story/west-midlands-police-officer-says-he-feared-for-his-life-as-suspect-pointed-gun-in-his-face-12411074 These incidents have become more frequent and I feel that it will not be long before parliamentary steps are taken get RIFs off our streets. I wonder what UKARA are doing to try to reduce the fate of this hobby. Maybe we should keep our RIFs locked up on our local sites or our local police station...

This also.

Pretty sure lee wade from 6mm long range airsoft group (fb) has made 'lob' shots close to 150m with his tanaka. Yes he's above 1j but I imagine if anyone's perusing the longest shot for an airsoft rif it's someone on his group, whether they are in the UK or overseas.

Exactly the same here. If any players ask why I have it I might start telling them I'm the "god mode police" or that I enjoy recording people that ask pointless questions.

As well as the above valid point by @Cannonfodder, you cannot breach these rules. You'll just have to attend 3 games over a period greater than 56 days (which goes by very quickly). On another note by the time you gain your ukara number hopefully the UK retailers will be able to offer a greater stock list of options for you.

Yeah crack on its fine. Try to ignore thoughts of what others may think of you. If you want to video your game play then crack on and have fun.

Il answer your question as per my experience , since this is what you have asked. Well mb01 & mb08 = not the worst but requires alot of mods/upgrades to make it consistent. They're also very big and heavy. Ssg10 a1 & a3 = all I've done is fit a tdc and it's very impressive. I did apply foam inserts and heat shrink to the internals to reduce the rattles but apart from that it's great.

I'd respond with "you've got real nails, eyebrows, hair skin colour etc, so why do you want pretend ones?" Watch those eyes of hers scan to the left or right in search of a justification.. To make her happy perhaps? Well funnily enough airsoft makes you happy. Good luck.

Should I be concerned about the mosfet in my g&g sr15 mod2 then? It's 2 months old (used once) or is the G2 gearbox/mosfet better in this model? I'm running 2 x new 9.6v nimh batteries and had no issues on first outing...

Should of emptied the mag just to be sure he got him.

At the time I'd recently moved to the Lake District so at first I just thought that this must be how 'the locals' talk (farmers and isolated villages) but as it transpires this member was a one off "special edition". There's an idea. In all the promotion badges there's no "special edition" badge for you know, special editions..

Years ago on either this forum or another popular one I was trying to see if there were any airsofter's local to me who wanted to car share as I was new to the hobby and wanted to reduce pollution etc. Anyhow I received a message from a member called "pumak" as follows: "oi mate can u pick up penrith mate can I smoke" I kindly asked him what was his/her name and that smoking was not allowed in my car but that I was happy to drive up to collect him/her and then onto a F&O site in Lancashire. This person replied: "oi , pick me up, we go I smoke at stop oi why u wanna name mate reply now" I never responded. Thankfully I've only ever come across one person who cannot string a sentence together or uphold what id call "normal" manners.

Il refer to clauses 338 & 762 of the 556th edition of the tactical Walts code of conduct that the "operator" must, whilst looking ultra chad/ninja be able to fire their selected weapon at any moment. It also states that in order to comply fully with above-mentioned clauses the operator must be aware of photographer(s) and "strike a pose" where they feel they'll look the most "ultra mega ninja tactical stealth" as this will always be remembered in history, whereas your "kills" won't. The SBS (sneaky beakys) as well as the SAS (obviously super army soldiers) headhunt "operators" directly from the photos published in or on airsoft media so that they can learn from the best the world has to offer. I don't think you'll make the grade this time. I'd love a copy of that manual BTW. Il study it once I've finished the current series of training manuals I am working through called "dealing with airsoft - how to cope with being a virgin forever and how to cope with rejection"

Private snowball... *giggle*

Firstly, welcome to the forum and great phot. From that image the main thing that I noticed is the placement of your right hand. I know its just a game/toy guns etc but...you should always be ready to put the rounds onto the enemy (ignore if you have a buddy inside covering you). What the fuck am I going on about, throw some bangs in first and enter how the fuck you want. 🧠🧨 👊🏃‍♂️

Glencoe? Forget toy guns matey and get yourself up the chairlift with your bikes. Man I miss glencoe dh track.

Haters on standby.... I can only recommend from my personal experiences. Ive owned a fair few boltys and the best thus far is my ssg10. I'd buy the a1 version(strip & clean before use) , fit the tridos tdc, watch YouTube for free methods to silence it/make it better and away you go. The silverback lineup do appear impressive but I've never needed to buy one yet. Don't forget that you can save alot buy going second hand.
